How to buy travel insurance for a Switzerland visa application (Schengen visa) — which plan should you buy?

For the travel route, select Thailand - Schengen or select Thailand - Worldwide, but do not choose a country-specific plan, as it cannot be used for a Schengen visa application. 

How much coverage should you purchase?

Choose a policy with coverage of not less than 30,000 euros for these 4 risk categories : 

1. Accidental death, dismemberment, loss of sight, or total permanent disability, with coverage of not less than 30,000 euros

2. Medical expenses (actual expenses up to maximum limit), with coverage of not less than 30,000 euros

3. Emergency medical evacuation or repatriation to Thailand, with coverage of not less than 30,000 euros

4. Repatriation of mortal remains to the home country, with coverage of not less than 30,000 euros

Number of days to purchase insurance :

Starting from the date you fly out of Thailand until the date you arrive at an airport in Thailand.

For example :

Outbound : Fly out of Thailand on June 1, but arrive at destination airport on June 2

You must buy insurance starting from 1 June

Inbound : Fly out of Switzerland on August 1, but arrive in Bangkok, Thailand on August 2

You must buy insurance until 2 August

Additional recommendation :

We recommend purchasing from an insurance company that offers a refund policy if your visa application is not approved.
